Chapter 137: Dormitory Gossip
“My name is Sun Qiu. I’m a third-year student at Ping Chao High School.
Our school was very big, and there were many students. Most of them were boarding students, so after 9: 30 pm, the students would return to their dormitory to rest.
Typically, the evening self-study session would start at 9: 30 pm, and the lights would be turned off at 10 pm.
Our dormitory was on the sixth floor, and there were eight people in the dormitory. Actually, the time between the evening self-study class and the lights out was really too short. During this time, we usually had to rush back to the dormitory, wash our clothes, wash our socks, and wash up. Basically, when we were done, before we could even finish, a whistle would sound from the corridor outside. It was the dormitory manager who asked us to turn off the lights and go to bed.
The teacher-in-charge was very strict. They were all middle-aged men, and they looked very fierce. To be honest, most of the teacher-in-charge had a strong sense of authority.
They saw that we were students, so they scolded us when we moved. They did not have a high education level, but they were good teachers. Sometimes, they would purposely find fault with the students.
Furthermore, when they scolded the students, they were very funny. It was like a meeting with a senior leader. They scolded themselves to satisfy their cravings, and they treated the students who returned late or read novels or used their phones as criminals. When they were tired from the lecture, they would let the students understand their speech spirit.
At the same time, he asked the students to stand in the office and write the so-called examination and thought report. They would reflect on their own problems and set a number.
Actually, they were just bullying us middle school students who were more obedient and younger. As for the high school students, they did not dare to be so arrogant.
Therefore, we hated them. They would wander outside the dormitory after the lights went out. There was a window in the middle of the door, and from there, we could see what was going on inside. That was where they liked to look.
If someone spoke after the lights were turned off, or if someone used a flashlight or a phone, they would rush in like mad dogs, confiscate your stuff, and drag you out of bed, take you to the corridor outside, or take you to their office to reprimand you.
Therefore, after the lights went out, my roommates and I did not dare to speak loudly for fear of being overheard. Some of my roommates used their phones to hide under their blankets.
I prefer to read novels. Plus, my phone was confiscated a while ago, so I covered myself with the blanket and hid inside, using the flashlight to read novels.
In the past, I could watch the whole night like this. After all, life at school was too boring. We had two days off every month before we could leave the school, and we could only stay at school.
The morning self-study started at 6: 30 am, and it continued until 9: 30 pm. Our morning self-study and evening self-study were meant for the teacher, so there was no such thing as voluntary or not.
So, for me, the only entertainment and entertainment is reading novels while sleeping in the dormitory.
That night, I started reading a novel very early in the morning. I wrapped my blanket tightly around myself.
Currently, Tian’er was actually very hot, and it was easy for her to sweat while wrapped in the blanket. It was very stuffy and uncomfortable, but I couldn’t care less. After a while, I turned off the flashlight and let my head out to breathe in some fresh air. Then, I went back in to watch.
At 2 am, my roommates were all asleep, so I went to the toilet.
Right,
Our dormitory had four bunk beds, which meant that eight people could live there. My bunk was near the balcony.
There was a separate bathroom in the dormitory. It was small enough to fit a toilet bowl.
I did not dare to look into the bathroom with the book in my hands because if the lights in your bathroom were to be turned on for a longer period of time, if the dormitory supervisor noticed it, he might take the key and quickly open the door to enter the bathroom to check on you. They used the key to open the door very quickly. They had practiced before!
One of my roommates is watching the MP4 in the bathroom while I defend myself.
The dormitory supervisor suddenly rushed in.
Human…
“Piece.”
All were obtained.
This made him do several self-reflections, and he called his parents over. In the end, my roommate stopped looking at those things, but he got closer and closer to his deskmate.
Sorry, I was off topic. That night, as I sat on the toilet, thinking about the plot in the novel, I heard footsteps outside.
My heart skipped a beat. I was glad that I didn’t bring the novel to the bathroom. Otherwise, I’d be dead if I got targeted by this crazy dog.
When I walked out of the bathroom, I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside the door. I lowered my head silently. Behind the door, I saw a pair of leather shoes.
Sure enough, there was someone standing outside. He was staring at me. He was waiting for me. I silently took a deep breath and prepared to return to the bed. However, after taking a few steps, I suddenly thought of something.
“That is, the glass at the door of our dormitory is not that high. Even I can see through the glass, but why can’t I see the teacher’s face or his shoes?”
Could it be that he was squatting there and waiting for me to reveal a flaw?
So sinister?
F*ck.
Old coins!
Swish swish swish…
There was a scraping sound on the other side of the door. It was faint and soft. I heard it. It sounded like someone was rubbing the wooden door of the dormitory with a keychain.
I didn’t have a novel in my hand. I had nothing to be afraid of. After hearing the noise, I wasn’t in a hurry to get into bed. I walked straight to the door and leaned my face close to the glass. I planned to see what was going on outside and see what the dormitory supervisor was doing.
However, when I moved my face to the glass, I realized that it was empty. There was no one there, and no one was squatting there.
I pulled my head back and bent down to look at the crack, but there was really a pair of leather shoes there.
Who took off their leather shoes here?
I opened the door. To be honest, I was not that afraid then, and I did not think too much about it. When I opened the door, I realized that there were no leather shoes outside.
I was stunned and confused.
“What are you doing? Why are you opening the door!”
A shout came from afar, and I saw a black shadow walking down the corridor. It was pointing at me. I could not tell which dormitory supervisor it was. There was something wrong with the corridor light. It was not very bright, but I was so scared that I immediately closed the door and climbed onto my bunk.
I did not dare wrap myself in the blanket immediately and turn on the flashlight to read the novel. I was afraid that my action would attract the teacher’s attention, and he might stare at my room alone. If he noticed that there was a small light coming from my room, I would be dead.
Furthermore, I was afraid that he would find fault with me and open our dormitory door to scold me for trying to open the door and poke his head out.
I waited for a long time.
This was a battle of patience.
This was a game between a hunter and a wolf.
Really, this was not exaggerated at all.
I wanted to continue reading the novel and immerse myself in the novel world, but I did not dare, because after I went to bed, I kept hearing the sound of leather shoes echoing in the corridor outside.
I checked the time on my watch. It was already 2: 30 am.
Damn it.
They were still searching for their prey!
The sound of the leather shoes haunted me for a long time. I wanted to turn on the flashlight to read more novels, but I did not dare.
From 2: 30 pm to 3 pm, Leather Shoe’s voice did not stop. From time to time, he would appear. I cursed the teacher many times in my mind.
If he doesn’t leave, I won’t dare to read novels. I’m so anxious.
“At that time, I even wondered if he was in a bad mood because he had just gotten a divorce. Tonight, he wanted to find someone who had done something wrong to lecture him, so he was still so persistent even at this time.
At that moment, our dormitory door was opened.
I was shocked and immediately closed my eyes, pretending that I was sleeping.
Previously, my novel and flashlight were under my blanket. When he opened the door, I was lying on the bed doing nothing else, so I was not afraid.
The sound of leather shoes.
It slowly approached.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip…
Something dripped.
Also, I suddenly felt like a gust of wind was blowing at me. I was a little cold, and my body was shaking uncontrollably.
Perhaps it was because the dormitory door was open, and the balcony window was not closed, so the wind was blowing.
Leather Shoe walked to my side and stopped for a while. I allowed myself to maintain a steady pace of breathing. At this moment, I felt that my acting skills were not bad.
Leather Shoe stayed with me for a moment. Then he walked away in silence. Then the door slammed shut.
I didn’t dare move.
He continued to lie down.
About two minutes later, the door opened again, and I heard leather shoes. The door closed again.
F*ck!
The first time he closed the door, he did not leave. He was waiting for me!
Luckily, I’m quick-witted!
F*ck!
Finally, the sound of leather shoes could no longer be heard.
I exhaled.
Then, he covered himself with the blanket and turned on the flashlight to continue reading my novel.
I watched it for about half an hour. It was a wonderful part.
Thump…
I heard voices coming from the balcony.
Puzzled, I turned off the flashlight and poked my head out of the blanket. I was not afraid of the sound on the balcony. As long as it was not the sound of the corridor, I was fine.
I stretched my head out of the bed and looked toward the balcony. Actually, because of the moon, the visibility on the balcony was pretty good. I thought someone’s clothes had fallen off when they were hanging outside, but I realized that there were no clothes that had fallen off the balcony.
Then…
I opened my mouth in shock.
I saw it.
He saw a pair of leather shoes on the balcony!
Leather shoes!
How could there be leather shoes here?
We’re on the sixth floor, and I’m on the top floor. There’s no one living up there, and it’s impossible for something to be thrown down. The dormitory next door wouldn’t have thrown something over at this hour, and it would have been leather shoes.
Then…
While I was shocked,
A face.
An upside-down face.
The wall slowly slid down from the balcony.
My body froze, and I subconsciously watched the adult man’s face slowly slide down.
He narrowed his eyes.
He had an exaggerated smile on his face.
Then…
He opened his mouth.
blew into my face.
Dao:
“Hei…”
Got you.
I’m reading a novel. “
